Finitris aide, Kumangar, punctures Abbo’s apology claim, saying, “I am ready to defend Fintiri with my blood.”
The Director-general media to Governor Fintiri of Adamawa state, Mr Solomon Kumangar, today vowed to resist any move to undermine the current administration of Governor Fintiri by Ishaku Abbo or any publicly exposed person on account of opposition.
Besides, the Director-General backed “genuine” and constructive criticism of the current Administration but not hauling insult on the Governor, adding that the Governor was never at any time opposed to constructive criticism.
The warning may have been informed by a Facebook post today where Ishaku Abbo, claimed that the Director of general media to Governor Fintiri, Solomon Kumangar, has apologised to him for severally criticising him.
“Am ready to defend Governor Fintiri with my last blood as being in opposition does not suggest Ishaku Abbo should be hauling insult on the Governor, this fellow is not the only person in oppostion in Adamawa why is he so obessed on throwing tantrum on the Governor, politically and age wise, Abbo is in elementary school compare to Fintiri credential in poltics.”
“We, therefore, warn those seeking an undeserved political advantage to desist. As the head of the Governor’s media directorate I are conscious of our obligations as well as rights and will discharge and defend same without reservations.”
“if there is anyone that should be in jail when it comes to character assassination, it should be Abbo.
Ishaku Abbo today took to his Facebook page claiming that Kumangar has apologised to him as a statement the DG media said is libellous and lies from the pit of hell.
Abbo, in a veil reference to The Finder Newspaper, also allege that “an online medium has been recruited to constantly run a smear campaign against me including criminal defamation which are carefully compiled and I swear at the right time he will answer for his crimes”.
Also reacting the Editor in chief of The Finder Newspaper, Michael Joseph, was quoted to have said, “I know even without calling our medium name we know that Abbo is referring to us; however he should know that we don’t defame people but with report facts and his actions and inactions that affect the public.
“We have witnessed Abbo calling a man that has never been convicted by any court a criminal, which is more criminal than any statement issued by the DG media to Governor; we are suggesting to him o explain to the people why he took a young man to court in Adamawa claiming he was defamed on Facebook.
“We still remember Abbo calling APC a party of propagandist and severally labelling same with a derogative name yet he was not threatened yet he is claiming an online paper is criminally defaming him, he should know he has no immunity as a Senator yet the Governor did not threaten to sue him despite calling him unprintable names.
